This hotel was lovely. Our room was spacious and recently renovated, with a very modern and clean attached bath. The included full breakfast buffet was delicious. The staff was very helpful, and the desk has someone there 24 hours a day. I think that guests who cannot climb stairs should be aware that the lifts don't cover every part of the building, and that the layout of the building is a bit hard to understand. But if mobility is not a concern, this is an absolutely beautiful place to stay. You can easily walk down to the waterfront or to see the standing stones. At night you hear the gulls squawking, which is oddly peaceful. In all, we loved staying here.

Business in Bangor
I've stayed at the Management Centre several times sine last December. It's a convenient location for my work in Bangor. The staff are friendly and welcoming and parking is complimentary. Some rooms are on floors that are not served by a lift (I think) - this is no issue for me but some guests may wish to bear this in mind when booking. My only negative is that the bar doesn't open until 17:30. Otherwise a lovely hotel with some great views over the strait.

It was not a hotel, just an annexe to Bangor university - a conference centre with bedrooms! Difficult to find, limited parking, unfriendly staff on reception, poor facilities, unreasonably complex directions to find bedroom. We stayed for 30 mins before handing back our key to a rather disinterested receptionist, then came back home.

Great visit
Overall we thought the accommodation was excellent, clean and comfortable. The view of The Strait was an added bonus. Well appointed but there were stairs to negotiate if in the 3rd floor. The service was excellent however we ate in the restaurant and this let service levels down. It was a particularly busy evening and diners were left waiting while a till issue was sorted. Then we were told the kitchen might be closed. More training needed.

Property is lovely. Our room had a wonderful view. Across from the pub - but they were somewhat civilized. We slept until 10 am next day (jet lag) and missed breakfast. Our fault of course - but for a service organization, they could have offered coffee or a bun or something... We asked if they could recommend a place for breakfast - and sadly, the only thing they could come up with was to go to Morrisons (the grocery store). Not exactly what I would call customer oriented service. Still - a nice place to stay over.

The guest rooms are quite dated and the mattresses are worn, leading to an uncomfortable night's sleep. For the first two days of our stay, we were in a cold room as we were unaware of how to operate the heating system. Upon inquiring at the front desk, we learned that the radiators could be turned on manually with a knob. It would be helpful to have clear instructions posted in the rooms to inform guests on using the heating controls. Interestingly, despite the hotel's environmental signage in the bathrooms requesting guests to retain their towels for multiple uses, housekeeping replaced our towels after just one day's use when they had not been left on the floor. This seems contradictory to their stated sustainability practices that the housekeeping staff should be mindful of. The breakfast offerings are underwhelming, with limited selections that tend towards either unhealthy, heavy fare or light continental options like yogurt and fruit. More balanced, nutritious choices in between these extremes would be appreciated. Furthermore, the coffee served is of poor quality. While the accommodations suffice for a short stay, some updates and expanded amenities would significantly improve the overall guest experience at this hotel.

This is a perfectly functional hotel without being exceptional. All the staff were extremely polite and helpful and could not be faulted. It's clean albeit a bit tired. I think the rooms could be better soundproofed as people talking in the corridors could be heard word for word. The breakfast choice was good and our evening meal we tried was again good without being great. pricing is much the same as local restaurants. We found it to be a good location for visiting sites across Anglesey and the North Wales coastline down to Snowdonia. Plenty of parking and located on a very quiet road with extensive grounds and a view over the Menai Straights from some vantage points.

It was fine and clean, the building is lovely outside but the room we were in was small and reminded me mostly of my university accommodation years ago. This would be fine if the room was cheap, but it wasn't. Breakfast was ok but the evening menu was limited and we had to go into town to find something everyone would eat. Wouldn't stay here again.
